It's Complicated

Directed by: Nancy Meyers

Written by: Nancy Meyers

Cast: Meryl Streep, Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin

Baldwin and Streep play ex-husband and wife who suddenly get the hots for each other after ten years apart, in this farce of revived lust. While Baldwin's Jake – now married to a much younger model, with a nightmare toddler in tow – jumps at the chance, Streep's bakery owner Jane is initially appalled at her own behaviour. Uneven but not unfunny.
